Verizon officially announced the rollout of its XLTE service back in May of 2014. The improved LTE coverage only saw a small rollout, but since then the big red carrier has been rolling out XLTE to new markets

Verizon’s XLTE service is now live in 466 markets across the country. With XLTE, customers with compatible devices can access both 700MHz and AWS spectrum as well as faster peak data speeds.

While XLTE network enhancements are invisible to the customer, the mobile experience is not. XLTE Ready devices automatically access both 700 MHz spectrum and the AWS spectrum in XLTE cities.Source: Verizon
